Run
mkdir /home/hs/testsamba
tail -f /var/log/messages
on the client and try both
mount -v -t cifs //192.168.0.8/testsamba /home/hs/testsamba -o
domain=smbwg,username=hs,password=<password>,port=139
mount -v -t cifs //192.168.0.8/testsamba /home/hs/testsamba -o
domain=smbwg,username=hs,password=<password>,port=445

Hi

I remember now how i used it.

First you have to run a smbmount // command, this fails but creates the cifs directory, it doesn't exist till your first smbmount command. It's a temporary directory which disappears on next boot.

then run

echo 0> /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled

and now run your smbmout command again, all should be ok


Mr Smiley


you can ;put everything back without rebooting by changing the 0 or a 1 as below

echo 1> /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled



A man with a thermometer knows the temperature. A man with two thermometers is never sure.

I see. Please see my other recent post, turns out that the problem was
with the permissions of my mount points (within my ~/). I wanted to make
cifs work since it is apparently the newer choice.

But an engineer he will have a better estimate from multiple readings. :-)
